I remember staying up late and waiting for this album to be released. Still one of my favorite twenty one pilots songs. Whenever someone likes this comment, I'll be reminded of this song
“In time, I will leave the city For now I will stay alive... Though I’m far from home In Trench I’m not alone These faces facin’ me, They know, they know what I mean” As a follower of Christ who was saved from a dark place of anxiety and a depressive state by him one day 2 years ago, this song has a special meaning... The true home we long for has been assured to us through Christ’s death and resurrection, but it is not available to us yet. We long for it on the basis of our faith and the faith of saints who have gone before us. In the meantime, we are “in between” a place of death and a place of life. We are in Trench. This track Leave the City, lingers on this resolve to live and finishes with a resigned hope that i quoted above. Here's a biblical passage that relates: “All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country-a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.” Hebrews 11:13-16

I'm a cancer survivor and my son has type one diabetes. Sometimes it can feel like we're battling to live. We will battle. We will stay alive. One day we'll leave the city, but not until we're ready.

this is so beautiful. people all over the world are flocking to these 14 songs. people are crying, laughing, smiling, bopping, dancing, and singing these lyrics. this album is monumental.
i feel like this album, this song especially, is about trying your hardest to avoid and get out of your depression but at the very end (aka leave the city) you realize that it will take more time than you thought and what you really need to learn to do is cope and live with it but most importantly survive. like tyler’s family and friends are always there for him, and us as fans we’ve all been able to see that his depression is getting better (ie the “no more black paint!” posts and ones lyrically comparing the different albums) which explains “they know that it’s almost over.” tyler also realizes how many of us suffer from depression and other mental diseases which was already highlighted in vessel with “we’re broken people” but now he brings it up again in a more solemn tone as “they know what i mean” because we can all relate to his situation + most of us can relate to the moment where he realizes that the best he can do is know that in the future he will leave the city and defeat his depression but for right now he’ll stay alive. basically what i’m saying is i really hope this doesn’t mean twenty one pilots is releasing trench as their last album and i wanted to get as deep into this theory in one comment as i could so that i can avoid thinking about that possibility edit: thank you all sm for the likes! stay alive ||-//
I doubt they are. 😊 They are at the height of not just their fame and career... but this new era proves that they have plenty of new ideas waiting for us. I mean, it may be. There is always that possibility... but I don't think so. 💛🌻 Keep hope!!
some commentor i think this will get its own music video because; On genius it says that dema is a city, and on levitate tyler gets taken by blurryface. (im just going to call it that) It might be the last MV made for this album, because he has to leave the city (dema). i mean i dont know how he will because im not very good at this theorizing stuff so lets just wait and see how this goes. Edit: in the song it says “In trench im not alone” and i think trench is a code for the banditos. He might get saved by them. But eh, just a theory. Edit: what if the bandito’s group called trench gasp
Scaled and Icy: Redecorate Trench: Leave the City Blurryface: Goner Vessel: Truce Regional at Best: Anathema Self-Titled: A Car, a Torch, a Death No Phun Intended: TB Saga
i think the last note of this song is the last note of Truce, which is interesting because it mentions "i will stay alive" which is almost opposite to the lyric in Truce, "stay alive for me" i view this correlation two ways: it could be a response to Truce, like if Tyler is meant to be singing Truce, we (the clique) could be singing Leave the City as a response *or* it could be that because we are staying alive for him, he is staying alive for us (which sort of makes me think of Neon Gravestones) idk just tossin some ideas out there what do you guys think ?
"tho i'm far from home, in trench i'm not alone, these faces facing me they know what I mean." that pain in tyler's voice, i'm having goosebumps listening to these lines. to clique fam: you're not alone. stay alive.

Here I am, listening to this sitting on my balcony crying. A grown ass 39 year old guy, with severe depression and PTSD. I fought suicidal thoughts last year, got help, and was doing great, and over the last month started to relapse again down that hole. I want to stay alive, but then things snap in my head and I don’t. Then I read comments like these and realize why I love the clique so much. For now I will stay alive ||-//
It's okay to cry, right? I like to just listen sad song and cry. Scroll thru these comments I was depressed like half an year ago. I had really hard time getting thru the online school. It started to get better after summer holiday. Now I'm starting to get depressed again. Online school might come back anytime soon. I made it thru first time. I can do it another time. I believe in myself. This clique really is amazing. Stay alive friend ||-//
We see you and hear you Francisco and anyone else who is struggling - please find help - someone to talk to, someone who will listen, listen to music, view something beautiful and wonderous - and if that is not enough, please talk to a professional!! Also, crying can be a great release!
I was reading the comments on how some people interpreted the line "In time I will leave the city, for now I will stay alive." I feel like what that line is saying is that in time we will leave our own Demas, our own struggles, our own demons but for now we will continue to fight and stay alive. In all of the concerts on this tour, he always begs the crowd to sing along with him loudly and I feel like he wants us to say that we'll stay alive for now even if haven't escaped our "cities". The two major themes of trench is protecting and looking out for one another and to continue fighting no matter what which is why I didn't interpret the song as Tyler saying he'll stop making music or how the song is about death. To anyone going through something, I hope you keep fighting and staying a live because in time you will leave your city :)
@@BATMAN-eh3kp I wasn't able to go as well... But you and I are still part of the clique and nothing can make it to where we are less of it. Maybe one day we both can go to a concert or see the boys. 😊
This whole album literally saved my daughter's life. She was suicidal and self harming, and I didn't understand how deep her feelings were until she played this song for me. We sat and cried together, and I doubled my efforts to get her help. She's 22 now, married, and living an amazing life.
Everyone talks about this being the end of the album as "leave the city" but the lines. "In time, I will leave the city. For now, I will stay alive." Make me think "leaving the city" means death. The claim this song is about death is further substantiated by The burning Is so low it's concerning 'Cause they know that when it goes out It's a glorious gone The "burning" could, and often does mean the fire of life. When the flame goes out, he knows it will be "glorious" because everyone knows when a legend dies. It's only time before they show me Why no one ever comes back With details from beyond Time is the only thing separating his life currently, and when he understands death, and ultimately "why no one ever comes back." Probably no one will read this, and if they do, really give a shit, but i enjoyed writing it so
James Gooch as its your opinion i wont try to change your mind. But in my opinion i calmly disagree. Its such a cool album lyrically. It has such a good backstory ranging from ALL the albums like they planned it out from 6-7 years ago. Its crazy, one of the reasons why i love trench allot and i personally DONT think its a disappointment.
I just officially listened to the entire album. I just wanted to say wow. It’s so freakin good. Today has been a bad day for me and this really made me feel better. Now I’m finally not crying sad tear but, now I’m crying happy tears.
damn, listening to this 4 minutes before scaled and icy releases is such a crazy feeling, i cannot wait to listen to this album, thank you tyler and josh for everything
I absolutely adore the metaphor of 'Trench' Think of Trench as alluding to a military trench, like in World War I. We're all in this Trench together, brothers and sisters: friends. Trench is protection. Together we help each other survive within the Trench. We're fighting an enemy that can't be seen, only felt. That enemy is depression and suicide. We may never win this war, but we must continue fighting with, and for, our friends in the Trench. For if (and unfortunately when) we lose part of our Trench, the rest of our Trench becomes weaker. This is why we must be strong through difficult times and stay alive. Because the rest of the Trench needs you.
This is what I love about tøp, all the songs have different meanings different people, I've never heard of it this way, I always thought of it as Trench was an obstacle that those in Dema have to climb out of to finally beat depression
I’ve finished my cup of *coffee* I’ve finished my *biscuits* I’ve finished this *album* I’ve finished *Trench* But I’m not finished *myself* And I *never* will be And until the day I *die* I don’t *ever* plan to *be*
I'm ukrainian and ever since war hit my country I've been listening to this song on repeat for about a week and lyrics at 2:21 were my exact thoughts that whole week and then I moved out to another country
He obviuosly is not gonna to kil himself. Remember this album tell a story. Maybe "Clancy" is the one who sings this. Who wrote this, if you know what i mean
In time I will leave the city maybe meaning the band will not stay together much longer?!?! but for now I will stay alive maybe meaning for now they stay
My interpretation: The city he's referring to must me Dema. Dema is where he is trapped, stuck with his insecurities, anxiety, depression. He will eventually leave that city, aka recover, but for now he's just focusing on staying alive.
guys! for new year’s eve, play this at 11:55:58 (55 minutes and 58 seconds) at 12, you’ll hear “but this year though i’m far from home, in trench i’m not alone” i’m doing it!
this album is a masterpiece but since you’re a new fan I assume you haven’t listened to the other ones, PLEASE go and listen to vessel, blurry face, regional at best (and even no phun intended) THEYRE ALL SO GOOD
@@kweebs5191 im not new lmao, i love trench but everything else i dont really like anymore. Blurryface is one of my least favorites and ig vessel is alright. I absolutely hate RaB and Self Titled tho
i thought the black on his hands and neck were symbolizing his insecurities about what he creates (his hands for what he writes and his neck for his singing) i heard him say that in an interview
Is Tyler calling us. You aren´t alone. You have us. Thaks for the magic sounds, Tyler and Josh you are the best band. We love you! Thanks for you hard work! You are a hope in our lifes. My best wishes from México.
this is their best album by a mile. it holds so much meaning to me and i cannot express how much i want to re-live 2018 and be here through this album cycle again.
I just heard the whole album, and I can't express how I feel, it's incredible. You guys changed my life, and I want to thank you for everything you do. I will always love you and support you guys.
I only really liked this one and Gravestone. Probably unpopular opinion but I feel like they are out of original and good sound. But hey, if you like it, good on you!!!!
me too. i fucking lost it near the end. especially when he said "in trench im not alone, these faces facing me, they know" like OK tyler, THANK YOU for the FRESH TEARS you just served us.
"Last year I needed change of pace Couldn't take the pace of change Moving hastily But this year, though I'm far from home In Trench I'm not alone These faces facing me They know They know What I mean." He's talking to us 😭

i don't know who every clikkie is. but i am part of the clique. the clique is my fren. so even though i don´t know you, you are my fren too. stay alive, it's worth it. ||-//
If you are reading this don’t forget: You are not alone You are not worthless You are not done You are beautiful You have purpose You are loved You are going to have an impact on the world You are doing great You are not alone You are not alone 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
After today being broken up with for “being to fat” and friends yelling at me for no reason and finding out that I’m failing literally all of my classes I got this surprise and I’m crying but this time it’s happy tears thank you Tyler and josh I don’t know what I would have done if I wouldn’t have gotten this
SnAtCheD . I just wanted to say if,you need anything we are here for you. And if no one has told you that you are beautiful today I wanted to be the first to do so . I am a premed student and know the stress school can cause on us as students . Just breathe and do your best .
Anyone else crying? Cause I am. Not from deep sadness or anything depressing. But anyone crying from relief & feel like a weight lifted from their shoulders? Cause I do. "In trench I'm not alone." Just hits home for me.
I heard the first 10 seconds of Legend from the leaks but I felt like I should wait so I heard none of the others. I'm so glad I waited. This album means so much to me.
This is the most ghostly song they have made. I get chills listening to it. This song is important. I love Trench with my whole heart. I love Blurryface but Trench I got to experience for myself and that means everything to me.
"The burning is so low it's concerning, ‘Cause they know that when it goes out...." Doubt: "Temperature is dropping, temperature is dropping, I’m not sure if I can see this ever stopping....." I'm pretty sure the fire means will to life.
I think it means faith honestly at least this vid mabye its cuz I'm a Christian or mabye its becouse faith is a fire in ur heart or mabye its becouse he said that in a interview either way I need to give him hug
@@vi4269 yes definitely... and this song breaks my heart bc IMO, he's saying he's close to giving up (growing weary/tired) on trying to get his fans to understand the true meaning of his songs. A lot of fans still only see another particular meaning. He's knows hes running out of time :(

I did it. I listened to the lyric "But this year, though. In TRENCH in not alone" when the clock reached 12:00 am on this day of December 31st. Thank you, TØP, for a year we will never forget.
Except in Goner it's super quiet and goes straight to an unexpected scream while in this song it's getting louder and you're expecting a scream but it just goes quiet again...
Something I have recently realized and found interesting....when you battle these illnesses, like depression and anxiety, your brain chemistry makes you immediately approach these things from that standpoint and it can be terrifying. This song can tear you apart when viewed that way. But, when you stop and think about what Trench represents....it's a sign of hope...the yellow represents hope, happiness, success just as DEMA represents anxiety, depression, insecurities, suicide....it's a completely different song. "Leaving the city" could mean beating the battle with depression. "They know that it's almost over" could be Nico and the Niners acknowledging that they are losing the battle. "For now I'll stay alive" could just mean continuing to fight against suicide....and succeeding! Either way, this is a beautiful song and one that can be interpreted multiple different ways.
I would add to this that to me I will leave the city is 'I will get over this completely someday'. But for now he is focusing on surviving in the city (the depressed state of mind). As someone with severe clinical depression I've had to live with for years, I can say this is a natural and actually helpful way of looking at it: if you expect of yourself to get out fast and be very successful - it's too much pressure and makes you feel worse. But this meditative mantra: I will survive for now until I am strong enough to get out - this helps
i know this comment will probably get lost but i just want to say, im still trying to escape dema and its very hard, i almost stopped trying, but thanks to josh and tyler, im almost there. thank you so much for everything youve done for me stay alive frens
You can do it!But Dema calls me too.I escaped,but sometimes I think im too weak and a dissapointment to everyone.I struggled with Stuttering,self doubt and social anxiety.But we can do it,we are not alone in trench...
fr though. the song hits so differently and also i cant listen to this without the flashback of "your faces facing me" instead of "these faces facing me"
This song literally means so much to me. I start crying everytime he says "They know that its almost over" and "In Trench, I'm not alone." That reassurance makes me cry everytime.
This is so nostalgic. It's crazy how they can create something I feel like I've heard many times but at the same time heard nothing like it. So crazy yet beautiful.
This is such a beautiful song. And it can be seen through different lenses by everyone. One of the last lines, “in Trench I’m not alone,” can mean such different things to anyone. For some people it’s about their battle with depression, for others it’s a gentle reminder that there are more out there like them. For me, it’s how I feel alone because of my sexuality. I’m not straight, and it sometimes feel like I’m the only one in the world who is feeling this. This line reminds me that there are others like me, that I’m not abnormal or weird. I’m just me. Thank you, Twenty Øne Piløts.
It's good to know there's people like you. I like to come to read these comments sorting by newest. It makes me not feeling alone. Knowing people have same emotions as you.
Same, I'm a trans man, and I feel hopeless because of where I live, I could be killed if anyone knew I was trans, if anyone knew I left the relegion, I feel scared, hopeless, and "in time I will leave the city, for now I will stay alive" is exactly how I feel.
To whoever is reading this: -You are amazing -You are doing well -You are enough -You´ll get through this, as always -Someone loves you -Someone cares about you -You deserve being okay -It´s okay to cry YOU ARE STRONG. STAY STRONG
I had a breakdown in the shower the other day I just kept saying "in time I will leave the city, but for now I will stay alive" thank you to Tyler, Josh, and the Clique for keeping me alive
Depression is slowly eating me alive It's been 7 years now Actually i don't remember what life without depression is like ! Friends wanna have fun and party, No one wants to be in depressed mood I literally don't care about anything I'm always tired and numb Only depressed people will understand Bright side we aren't everlasting So I know death will tear us apart Suicide isn't the answer I don't know the answer
same it feels with borderline personality disorder (BPD)...you feel like you are in a constant fight with yourself...the thoughts are eating you from inside, a lot of scenarios in your head what change your mood, and the way of view the world, reality and so on...i feel you bro, you are not alone
Fren, just know that the clique will always have your back and we’ll always try to understand and help you❤️ and no. Suïcide is not the answer... please stay alive my fren |-/💛

After you listen to all their songs, you feel like you are free to die, but you choose to live..
“In time, I will leave the city
For now I will stay alive...
Though I’m far from home
In Trench I’m not alone
These faces facin’ me,
They know, they know what I mean”
As a follower of Christ who was saved from a dark place of anxiety and a depressive state by him one day 2 years ago, this song has a special meaning...
The true home we long for has been assured to us through Christ’s death and resurrection, but it is not available to us yet. We long for it on the basis of our faith and the faith of saints who have gone before us. In the meantime, we are “in between” a place of death and a place of life. We are in Trench.
This track Leave the City, lingers on this resolve to live and finishes with a resigned hope that i quoted above.
Here's a biblical passage that relates:
“All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country-a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.”

We long for it on the basis of our faith and the faith of saints who have gone before us. In the meantime, we are “in between” a place of death and a place of life. We are in Trench.
This track Leave the City, lingers on this resolve to live and finishes with a resigned hope that i quoted above.
Here's a biblical passage that relates:
“All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country-a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.”
Hebrews 11:13-16
amen
im really proud of you you're doing great much love
I'm not crying
*i'm showering.*
Pink Tea in tears

In the bath
Its raining
wash me with your water
this is so beautiful. people all over the world are flocking to these 14 songs. people are crying, laughing, smiling, bopping, dancing, and singing these lyrics. this album is monumental.
What a wonderful feeling. Knowing you're not alone
couldn’t have said it better.
justin you just made me cry twice as hard
nicely said
I want to fucking die
i feel like this album, this song especially, is about trying your hardest to avoid and get out of your depression but at the very end (aka leave the city) you realize that it will take more time than you thought and what you really need to learn to do is cope and live with it but most importantly survive. like tyler’s family and friends are always there for him, and us as fans we’ve all been able to see that his depression is getting better (ie the “no more black paint!” posts and ones lyrically comparing the different albums) which explains “they know that it’s almost over.” tyler also realizes how many of us suffer from depression and other mental diseases which was already highlighted in vessel with “we’re broken people” but now he brings it up again in a more solemn tone as “they know what i mean” because we can all relate to his situation + most of us can relate to the moment where he realizes that the best he can do is know that in the future he will leave the city and defeat his depression but for right now he’ll stay alive. basically what i’m saying is i really hope this doesn’t mean twenty one pilots is releasing trench as their last album and i wanted to get as deep into this theory in one comment as i could so that i can avoid thinking about that possibility
edit: thank you all sm for the likes! stay alive ||-//
I doubt they are. 😊 They are at the height of not just their fame and career... but this new era proves that they have plenty of new ideas waiting for us. I mean, it may be. There is always that possibility... but I don't think so. 💛🌻 Keep hope!!
some commentor Very interesting theory fren💛 thank you for sharing it🌻||-//
Duuuuude this almost made me cry an I was already weak from the music but good theory maybe not though 💛🌻
I know what you mean
some commentor i think this will get its own music video because;
On genius it says that dema is a city, and on levitate tyler gets taken by blurryface. (im just going to call it that)
It might be the last MV made for this album, because he has to leave the city (dema). i mean i dont know how he will because im not very good at this theorizing stuff so lets just wait and see how this goes.
Edit: in the song it says “In trench im not alone” and i think trench is a code for the banditos. He might get saved by them. But eh, just a theory.
Edit: what if the bandito’s group called trench gasp
Scaled and Icy: Redecorate Trench: Leave the City Blurryface: Goner Vessel: Truce Regional at Best: Anathema Self-Titled: A Car, a Torch, a Death No Phun Intended: TB Saga
Good list, except the best song off of NPI is definelty hole in the ground.
@@annsproul7849 nahhhhh it's either drown or taken by sleep
TB Saga is the most depressing song known to man
they dropped the taco on the floor, i think is rude
@Lucas Nelson i think it's about which song is the best but idk
the last chord is the last chord of truce.... oh boy i'm crying
Kenzie McCarrel I realized that too!!!
when i heard it i was in tears and having a million flashbacks LMAO
And 'for now i will stay alive'
Gosh im crying help
i was just about to say that but then i found your comment
:(
i think the last note of this song is the last note of Truce, which is interesting because it mentions "i will stay alive" which is almost opposite to the lyric in Truce, "stay alive for me"
i view this correlation two ways:
it could be a response to Truce, like if Tyler is meant to be singing Truce, we (the clique) could be singing Leave the City as a response
*or*
it could be that because we are staying alive for him, he is staying alive for us (which sort of makes me think of Neon Gravestones)
idk just tossin some ideas out there
what do you guys think ?
Exactly what I thought when I heard the last note :')
exactly.
i completely agree
Exactly what I thought too! Crazy!!!
Yep it’s G major chord I think
Wow, thank you TØP for making an album specifically for the clique
this was my opinion after the half album.
Judging by all those copy paste star emoji "TOP" comments I think it didn't work
"tho i'm far from home,
in trench i'm not alone,
these faces facing me
they know what I mean."
that pain in tyler's voice, i'm having goosebumps listening to these lines. to clique fam: you're not alone. stay alive.
“In time, I will leave the city
For now I will stay alive...
Though I’m far from home
In Trench I’m not alone
These faces facin’ me,
They know, they know what I mean”

At two thirty in the morning, I have been a changed person. Trench has officially changed me.
Same 2:48 am for me rn
coward
Here I am, listening to this sitting on my balcony crying. A grown ass 39 year old guy, with severe depression and PTSD. I fought suicidal thoughts last year, got help, and was doing great, and over the last month started to relapse again down that hole. I want to stay alive, but then things snap in my head and I don’t. Then I read comments like these and realize why I love the clique so much.
For now I will stay alive ||-//
It's okay to cry, right? I like to just listen sad song and cry. Scroll thru these comments I was depressed like half an year ago. I had really hard time getting thru the online school. It started to get better after summer holiday. Now I'm starting to get depressed again. Online school might come back anytime soon. I made it thru first time. I can do it another time. I believe in myself.
This clique really is amazing. Stay alive friend ||-//
Two years ago I was struggling with severe depression and Trench really helped me get through those times. Don't let the fire go out.
We see you and hear you Francisco and anyone else who is struggling - please find help - someone to talk to, someone who will listen, listen to music, view something beautiful and wonderous - and if that is not enough, please talk to a professional!! Also, crying can be a great release!
in time, you will leave the city, for now you will stay alive.
||-//
I was reading the comments on how some people interpreted the line "In time I will leave the city, for now I will stay alive." I feel like what that line is saying is that in time we will leave our own Demas, our own struggles, our own demons but for now we will continue to fight and stay alive. In all of the concerts on this tour, he always begs the crowd to sing along with him loudly and I feel like he wants us to say that we'll stay alive for now even if haven't escaped our "cities". The two major themes of trench is protecting and looking out for one another and to continue fighting no matter what which is why I didn't interpret the song as Tyler saying he'll stop making music or how the song is about death. To anyone going through something, I hope you keep fighting and staying a live because in time you will leave your city :)

This whole album literally saved my daughter's life. She was suicidal and self harming, and I didn't understand how deep her feelings were until she played this song for me. We sat and cried together, and I doubled my efforts to get her help. She's 22 now, married, and living an amazing life.

😊
What a beautiful closing to this album
Indeed
Everyone talks about this being the end of the album as "leave the city" but the lines.
"In time, I will leave the city. For now, I will stay alive."
Make me think "leaving the city" means death.
The claim this song is about death is further substantiated by
The burning
Is so low it's concerning
'Cause they know that when it goes out
It's a glorious gone
The "burning" could, and often does mean the fire of life. When the flame goes out, he knows it will be "glorious" because everyone knows when a legend dies.
It's only time before they show me
Why no one ever comes back
With details from beyond
Time is the only thing separating his life currently, and when he understands death, and ultimately "why no one ever comes back."
Probably no one will read this, and if they do, really give a shit, but i enjoyed writing it so
He was talking about death.
Exactly

“What is your favourite song from trench?”
Me: yes
Hard to pick as it's such a weak album for TOP!! Big disappointment. Never top vessel
James Gooch as its your opinion i wont try to change your mind. But in my opinion i calmly disagree. Its such a cool album lyrically. It has such a good backstory ranging from ALL the albums like they planned it out from 6-7 years ago. Its crazy, one of the reasons why i love trench allot and i personally DONT think its a disappointment.
@@najix2026 Yup. I love Trench, and personally my favorite album of theirs.
For me Vessel is the best but, I wouldn't say that Trench is weak for TØP.. it's actually pretty good.. but, Vessel still holds the number one😁
@@souradeepdas7589 same. I love vessel, it's my favourite, but I love Trench too. Tbh I love everything from TØP
I love how Leave the city has the same ending as Truce
I just officially listened to the entire album. I just wanted to say wow. It’s so freakin good. Today has been a bad day for me and this really made me feel better. Now I’m finally not crying sad tear but, now I’m crying happy tears.
me too actually. i hope youre doing okay ❤

well the last note on this song is the same as the last note on truce so
damn, listening to this 4 minutes before scaled and icy releases is such a crazy feeling, i cannot wait to listen to this album, thank you tyler and josh for everything
do you like the new album?
@@anisunflower2269 yes i think it’s pretty good, it doesn’t beat trench though
@@zant_3637 true
I absolutely adore the metaphor of 'Trench'
Think of Trench as alluding to a military trench, like in World War I. We're all in this Trench together, brothers and sisters: friends. Trench is protection. Together we help each other survive within the Trench. We're fighting an enemy that can't be seen, only felt. That enemy is depression and suicide.
We may never win this war, but we must continue fighting with, and for, our friends in the Trench. For if (and unfortunately when) we lose part of our Trench, the rest of our Trench becomes weaker. This is why we must be strong through difficult times and stay alive. Because the rest of the Trench needs you.
Also, go and read the lyrics to this song while keeping what I wrote in mind. Fire is a symbol for life
doyouseestroberries I never thought of it that way
This is what I love about tøp, all the songs have different meanings different people, I've never heard of it this way, I always thought of it as Trench was an obstacle that those in Dema have to climb out of to finally beat depression
I literally just was thinking of that. I saw another comment and it said that enemies would like release something called chlorine glass or something.

the way he says "over" reminds me of the ways he does in ride with the "help me" part

In time I will leave the city maybe meaning the band will not stay together much longer?!?! but for now I will stay alive maybe meaning for now they stay
@@riles4788 i hope not then i will be the person leaving. Yes i have razor blades. But i will try not to if the split up
My interpretation: The city he's referring to must me Dema. Dema is where he is trapped, stuck with his insecurities, anxiety, depression. He will eventually leave that city, aka recover, but for now he's just focusing on staying alive.
Car Lover mk2 I urge you to get help even though it’s hard to talk about stay alive and know people care about you

"The burning is so low it's concerning,
‘Cause they know that when it goes out...."
Doubt: "Temperature is dropping, temperature is dropping,
I’m not sure if I can see this ever stopping....."
I'm pretty sure the fire means will to life.
I think it means faith honestly at least this vid mabye its cuz I'm a Christian or mabye its becouse faith is a fire in ur heart or mabye its becouse he said that in a interview either way I need to give him hug
I think it's faith
@@vi4269 yes definitely... and this song breaks my heart bc IMO, he's saying he's close to giving up (growing weary/tired) on trying to get his fans to understand the true meaning of his songs. A lot of fans still only see another particular meaning. He's knows hes running out of time :(
also, "but i recently discovered it's a heatless fire" which could refer to dema just being an empty promise without hope
“In time, I will leave the city
For now I will stay alive...
Though I’m far from home
In Trench I’m not alone
These faces facin’ me,
They know, they know what I mean”
As a follower of Christ who was saved from a dark place of anxiety and a depressive state by him one day 2 years ago, this song has a special meaning...
The true home we long for has been assured to us through Christ’s death and resurrection, but it is not available to us yet. We long for it on the basis of our faith and the faith of saints who have gone before us. In the meantime, we are “in between” a place of death and a place of life. We are in Trench.
This track Leave the City, lingers on this resolve to live and finishes with a resigned hope that i quoted above.
Here's a biblical passage that relates:
“All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country-a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.”
Hebrews 11:13-16
I did it. I listened to the lyric "But this year, though. In TRENCH in not alone" when the clock reached 12:00 am on this day of December 31st. Thank you, TØP, for a year we will never forget.
Darn i should've done that for last new years,,

im gonna do it the day this was released lol
i fucking love this guys so much, they are unique.
This is Trench's Goner
brb fucking crYING
Minus the unexpected scream yes
Goner is blurryface’s leave the city 😤
and truce
Except in Goner it's super quiet and goes straight to an unexpected scream while in this song it's getting louder and you're expecting a scream but it just goes quiet again...
Something I have recently realized and found interesting....when you battle these illnesses, like depression and anxiety, your brain chemistry makes you immediately approach these things from that standpoint and it can be terrifying. This song can tear you apart when viewed that way.
But, when you stop and think about what Trench represents....it's a sign of hope...the yellow represents hope, happiness, success just as DEMA represents anxiety, depression, insecurities, suicide....it's a completely different song. "Leaving the city" could mean beating the battle with depression. "They know that it's almost over" could be Nico and the Niners acknowledging that they are losing the battle. "For now I'll stay alive" could just mean continuing to fight against suicide....and succeeding!
Either way, this is a beautiful song and one that can be interpreted multiple different ways.
I love reading all the interpretations of trench. I really like yours
I would add to this that to me I will leave the city is 'I will get over this completely someday'. But for now he is focusing on surviving in the city (the depressed state of mind). As someone with severe clinical depression I've had to live with for years, I can say this is a natural and actually helpful way of looking at it: if you expect of yourself to get out fast and be very successful - it's too much pressure and makes you feel worse. But this meditative mantra: I will survive for now until I am strong enough to get out - this helps
That’s smart ! And a nice point of view
my fav theory
i know this comment will probably get lost but i just want to say, im still trying to escape dema and its very hard, i almost stopped trying, but thanks to josh and tyler, im almost there.
thank you so much for everything youve done for me
stay alive frens
stay strong
Keep going! You can escape! We’re all here for you. ||-//
You can do it!But Dema calls me too.I escaped,but sometimes I think im too weak and a dissapointment to everyone.I struggled with Stuttering,self doubt and social anxiety.But we can do it,we are not alone in trench...
♥️
Stay alive, it’s worth it I promise... |-/
Listening to this after the “I am Clancy” video makes this song so much more meaningful
Listening to this and having concert flashbacks has to be the saddest thing ever
WORD
fr though. the song hits so differently and also i cant listen to this without the flashback of "your faces facing me" instead of "these faces facing me"
uuuugh that`s too true
Jiminsmoochi yeah, every time i listened to this after then ive always said “your” instead of “these faces facing me”
i wish i went to the concerts ;-; they dont come to my country
I love the wind effect in the background, it makes the song so soothing
When I first listened to Trench I experienced this aesthetic I never had, this song especially.
omg yes
The last chord reminds me of Truce!
Dylan Fallon the build reminds me of goner
It reminds me of Truce and goner at the same time...
-cries a damn pool-
Same
omg yess
Dude ur so right
This song literally means so much to me. I start crying everytime he says "They know that its almost over" and "In Trench, I'm not alone."
That reassurance makes me cry everytime.
*You've been crying the whole time. Time to wipe up.*
Big mood
id say hes just making lyrics with his tears
Wow that's great
I found this funny before I even realised the reference 😂
Whats the reference
This is so nostalgic. It's crazy how they can create something I feel like I've heard many times but at the same time heard nothing like it. So crazy yet beautiful.
Omg I love your name and profile pic
I’m actually laughing hahah

Same tbh
Jenny GV AAAAH I KNOW
This is such a beautiful song. And it can be seen through different lenses by everyone. One of the last lines, “in Trench I’m not alone,” can mean such different things to anyone. For some people it’s about their battle with depression, for others it’s a gentle reminder that there are more out there like them. For me, it’s how I feel alone because of my sexuality. I’m not straight, and it sometimes feel like I’m the only one in the world who is feeling this. This line reminds me that there are others like me, that I’m not abnormal or weird. I’m just me. Thank you, Twenty Øne Piløts.
It's good to know there's people like you. I like to come to read these comments sorting by newest. It makes me not feeling alone. Knowing people have same emotions as you.
I feel you, in Trench we're not alone 💛🖤
Same, I'm a trans man, and I feel hopeless because of where I live, I could be killed if anyone knew I was trans, if anyone knew I left the relegion, I feel scared, hopeless, and "in time I will leave the city, for now I will stay alive" is exactly how I feel.
IM NOT CRYING YOURE CRYING
WELL YEAH
HOW DID YOU KNOW
WERE ALL CRYING
I AM
I'm crying still from neon gravestones
To whoever is reading this:
-You are amazing
-You are doing well
-You are enough
-You´ll get through this, as always
-Someone loves you
-Someone cares about you
-You deserve being okay
-It´s okay to cry
YOU ARE STRONG. STAY STRONG
Thanks for this
Thank you for this, keep encouraging others much love.

Depression is slowly eating me alive
It's been 7 years now
Actually i don't remember what life without depression is like !
Friends wanna have fun and party,
No one wants to be in depressed mood
I literally don't care about anything
I'm always tired and numb
Only depressed people will understand
Bright side we aren't everlasting
So I know death will tear us apart
Suicide isn't the answer
I don't know the answer
same it feels with borderline personality disorder (BPD)...you feel like you are in a constant fight with yourself...the thoughts are eating you from inside, a lot of scenarios in your head what change your mood, and the way of view the world, reality and so on...i feel you bro, you are not alone
@@robert.mfr10 🙏💙
Fren, just know that the clique will always have your back and we’ll always try to understand and help you❤️ and no. Suïcide is not the answer... please stay alive my fren |-/💛
